Using these scaling laws we present a collection of the state-of-the-art exponents for directed percolation, dynamical percolation and other universality classes. This collection of results should help to elucidate the connections of self-organized criticality and systems with absorbing states. In particular, some non-universality in avalanche exponents is predicted for systems with many absorbing states.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "1999-03-01T20:37:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "absorbing states", "spreading exponents", "relating spreading critical exponents", "avalanche exponents", "laws relating spreading critical" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
